Ghanaian born Canadian Alphonso Davies has extended his contract at Bayern Munich to two more years after an excellent second season at the club.

The winger turned left-back signed a two-year contract extension that will see him remain at the club until the summer of 2025.

The 19-year old who joined the Bavarians from Vancouver Whitecaps last summer with his initial contract set to expire in 2023, but after an impressive campaign that has seen him become the first choice left back under Hansi Flick, the teenager was rewarded with a new contract.

"I am very happy. FC Bayern is one of the best clubs in the world, and for me it's a dream come true to play here," he told the club's official website.

"I felt happy from day one. I want to win as many titles as possible with this club. The mentality of always wanting to win everything is in FC Bayern's DNA."

Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is impressed by the Canadian's development at the club.

"Alphonso has developed very well at FC Bayern and has earned this contract extension with his impressive performances," he said.
